2017 AES International Conference on Semantic Audio

Konferenz / 21. Juni 2017 - 24. Juni 2017

2017 AES International Conference on Semantic Audio

Welcome to the 2017 AES International Conference on Semantic Audio.

Semantic Audio is concerned with the extraction of meaning
from audio signals and with the development of applications
that use this information to support the user in identifying,
organizing, and exploring audio signals, and interacting with
them. These applications include music information retrieval,
semantic web technologies, audio production, sound reproduction,
education, and gaming.

This conference will be the third AES international conference
on the topic and will provide the opportunity to present and
discuss the latest advancements in the fi eld. The conference
is jointly organized by the Fraunhofer Institute for Integrated
Circuits IIS, the Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg
(FAU), and the International Audio Laboratories Erlangen
(AudioLabs).
